I agree with you, except this part: "assets they just have lying around". Assets never lie around, except when you buy an apartment, don't live in it and don't even rent it. Usually the money is in investments (that make money by definition), stocks, bank accounts. All of these generate further value. So while it is unfair that some people get a huge head start in life, it's not wasted potential for the most part. Growing older I realized a life that is unfair but you get equal rights is actually better than trying to live in a fair society, like communism, which causes more issues than it solves. Plus, you can never be 100% fair, e.g. when do I get my check for being "less beautiful than my peers". Being at the bottom at the ladder looks-wise made it harder for me than anything else.
